Genetic dissection of heterosis of indica-japonica by introgression line, recombinant inbred line and their testcross populations.

ABSTRACT: The successful implementation of heterosis in rice has significantly enhanced rice productivity, but the genetic basis of heterosis in rice remains unclear. To understand the genetic basis of heterosis in rice, main-effect and epistatic quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with heterosis for grain yield-related traits in the four related rice mapping populations derived from Xiushui09 (XS09) (japonica) and IR2061 (indica), were dissected using single nucleotide polymorphism bin maps and replicated phenotyping experiments under two locations. Most mid-parent heterosis of testcross F₁s (TCF₁s) of XS09 background introgression lines (XSILs) with Peiai64S were significantly higher than those of TCF₁s of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) with PA64S at two loc
